How to use 'execute'?

[leberknecht]

Hi, i'm confused about how to use the execute command:

<?php
// TestClass.php
class TestClass
{
    public function method1()
    {
        echo "method 1 triggered";
    }

    public function method2()
    {
        echo "method 2 triggered";
        return 'yeehaa';
    }
}

script:

<?php
//script.php
require_once 'TestClass.php';

$testClass = new TestClass();
$testClass->method1();

then i fire phpcov execute script.php --clover coverage.xml and the contents of the clover file is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<coverage generated="1497445956">
  <project timestamp="1497445956">
    <metrics files="0" loc="0" ncloc="0" classes="0" methods="0" coveredmethods="0" conditionals="0" coveredconditionals="0" statements="0" coveredstatements="0" elements="0" coveredelements="0"/>
  </project>
</coverage>

i expected that method 1 will be covered..what am i missing here?
